DETECTIVE’S END.
DEATH FROM EXPOSURE. (Electric Telegraph.—Copyright). (Received This Day, 10 a.m.) NEW YORK, Yesterday. Roderick McLennan, the famous Pinkerton detective of Chicago, resigned and went Calgary on a farm. He was alone repairing a roof and fell off and broke both legs. He fired a revolver to attract attention, but his ammunition failed. He then set fire to the house and then to the granary but nobody came. Finally a pedlar arrived and transported him to the hospital. Both legs were frozen and he died later.- —Sun.
